Twista is known as one of hip-hop’s fastest rappers, even snagging a world record title for his speedy rhyming in 1993, but it turns out he can do more than rap at warp speed. He showed off a lesser-known talent of his on social media, revealing that he’s a talented ventriloquist. The rapper shared that he plans on using his hidden talent to help children learn about gun safety.
The 48-year-old shared the post on Monday, showing off his puppet skills. He performed a short clip with his doll Groucho, who struggled to pronounce the word “Toxic,” XXL reports.
“Groucho can’t say my producers name right; it’s Toxic not Coxes 😂 …go follow @twista_guncoach to see Groucho’s favorite (Legal) firearm! His buddy lil Twista will be aiding me in teaching children about the color codes of awareness and survival tips!! Classes coming soon!!!” Twista captioned the post.
Twista posted another video of him and Groucho on his “gun coach” Instagram account.
“Groucho is a Gun Snob!! Smh I thought he wanted a Glock! This dummy wants @official_staccato2011 guns and @qvo_tactical holsters smh bougie lol 😂” he wrote.
According to XXL, ventriloquism is just one of the rapper’s hidden talents. In response to a clip of the rapper and Groucho on Twitter, one viewer posted a video of the “Slow Jamz” rapper balancing a pool stick on top of a cue ball.
“He also do magic tricks too,” they wrote. “The legend can do it all.”
